Answer:

(B) A noncurrent liability of $4,000

Explanation:

The non-current liability in respect of deferred tax shall be recognised in the accounts of Bren Co. as at December 31 as follows:

Deferred income tax liability related to non-current assets= $15,000

Deferred income tax asset related to non-current liability = ($3,000)

Deferred income tax asset related to current liability         = ($8,000)

Deferred income tax liability to be recorded at year end   = $4,000

So based on the above discussion the answer is (B) A noncurrent liability of $4,000
